AMC Theatres’ US Chain may accept payment in Shiba Inu

AMC Theatres in the US is looking to expand its crypto portfolio in terms of accepting payments. Adam Aron, CEO, AMC Theatres has asked if dog-coin Shiba Inu should be considered as a payment option for purchasing movie tickets and other services they offer in the states, through a poll on Twitter.

The development comes almost a month after the movie theatre chain enabled Dogecoin payments. Both Shiba Inu and Dogecoin are pitted as rival meme-based coins.

The tweet read as follows: “TWITTER POLL #2: As you know, you can now purchase AMC gift cards using cryptocurrency, and our IT group is writing code so that soon we can accept online payments in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Dogecoin among others. Should we strive to take Shiba Inu too?

Yes Shiba Inu for sure, Yes The More The Merrier, No You Have Enough Choice, No Don’t Take Shiba Inu,” are the four options in the poll.
